tone down? I approached this bug as anything but inappropriate then everyone starts getting all defensive on me.
I am free from ego. I don't think my library "is the stuff". i just made some valid arguments and then everyone starts feeling like they are being threatened or accused and making my comments much more than they are. Then everyone reads those comments, sees the obvious negativity and then rides the band wagon thinking they are siding with the right (but noticibly larger) crowd. It kind of reminds me of the red wings. I'm actually very unimpressed with how the people get all defensive, witty, immature and whatever else to the list. Don't read this like, "Oh Ken is now attacking me". I'm not doing that. It just seems that I post (what I thought) to be a valid issue about XSLT with the idea in my mind that "let's get this solved because that is a good thing that we fix bugs". But one reply after the other and everything blown out of proportion. It makes no sense. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wez Furlong" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ken Egervari" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 1:42 PM Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] XSLT bug > Have you tried running it through command line xslt processors? > xsltproc (part of libxslt) gives me this output: > > bthe name<br/> > dthe name2<br/> > > Admittedly, it's not identical to the output you were getting, > but then it's using a different XSLT processor. > The point is that it is still b and d. > > If there was a bug in sablotron, the php-dev volunteers cannot > be held responsible - you should talk to the sablotron people, > or the libxslt people - whoever it was that wrote your xslt library. > > Please "tone down" the strength of your comments and remember that > most (all?) of the developers here are volunteers and that if the > situation were reversed you would not enjoy having your good will > gestures thrown back in your face by someone that has not taken > the time to do the most basic research into their problems. > > php-dev is for constructive discussions about the development of > php, not for bitching about your dislikes of PHP.
